Description

Join SFDC for the 2018 Mary Thonen Richmond Highway Beautification Awards and Open House from 4:00pm-7:00pm, Thursday, December 13 at the BRAND NEW McAlister's Deli, 7704 Richmond Hwy, Alexandria, VA 22308.

This annual award program is presented by the Southeast Fairfax Development Corporation (SFDC) to recognize local establishments for their outstanding contributions to Richmond Highway beautification in the form of landscape improvements. This annual award was named to honor a community champion and long-serving board member, the late Mary Thonen.

While SFDC and Fairfax County have improved the highway’s center medians, it is the responsibility of the establishment owners to care for their own landscaping. Attractive landscaping serves the purpose of attracting consumers to individual establishments and betters the visual appeal of the highway as a whole.
